300 Gunter Smith Rd

Tucked into the southern reaches of the Big Creek Valley, this 32-acre retreat is the kind of place that's hard to find and even harder to forget. With nearly a third of a mile of Big Creek running through the property, you'll have your own swimming hole, world-class fishing, and the soothing sound of moving water as your daily soundtrack. The land itself tells the story — 13 acres of rich pasture, cross-fenced and already working as an active mule and horse facility, ready for your equine dreams from day one. A large spring feeds the land, and the mix of fertile bottom ground and elevated ridge gives you the best of both worlds: productive acreage and dramatic, sweeping views. The home is made for the way families actually live. An open-concept layout with large windows frames the valley like a painting, flooding every room with natural light and keeping you connected to the land even from inside. The spacious kitchen is built for big meals and bigger gatherings, while wraparound porches invite you to slow down and take it all in. When extended family visits, the full basement — complete with two bedrooms and a generous great room — gives everyone their own space without anyone feeling crowded. Step outside and the adventure begins. Hike wooded ridges, explore dramatic bluffs, or settle in at the fisherman's cabin creekside. The shaded grassy knoll overlooking the swimming hole is the kind of spot that becomes the heart of every summer memory. All of this, and you're only 30 minutes to Columbia and one hour to Franklin — close enough for convenience, far enough to feel like you've truly gotten away.
